    Lol, “better integrate into society” says the province that refuses to integrate into anglophone society which is far larger and more important to international business.

      I disagree with Legault but I also disagree with you. Quebec and New Brunswick have no obligation to become English monolingual provinces. But we also shouldn’t be discriminating against people based on language (any language) where we can accommodate, especially if it’s one of the official languages of the country or province.

        English is also an official language, yet it’s perfectly ok for Quebec to discriminate against Anglophones?

            The question was rhetorical. They fucking do, it’s an absolutely horrible place for anglophones to live, and Quebec can go fuck itself.

              Quebec an horrible place for anglos to live? Makes you wonder why more Ontarians move to Quebec than the contrary…

              Montreal, Gatineau, Sherbrooke and the cities/towns around are all places where you can spend your whole life living 100% in English even though it’s not an official language. Find me the equivalent for French Canadians in a major city in Alberta.

      Multiculturalism is when every culture is free to abandon theirs for British ersatzs.

      Bilingualism in Quebec is at something like 90% for people who pursue post secondary education. How’s bilingualism in your province going? Just a quick reminder that there’s two official languages in Canada so it would only be logical that people be bilingual even if English is their first language, wouldn’t it?
